Reading progress update: I've read 27 out of 316 pages.
For my next book, I decided to tackle one of the histories of the First World War in the air that I had acquired a couple of months back. It's not bad so far, but it has the strangest pagination I have ever encountered:
In every other book I have read, the Roman numerals for the pages preceding the main text and the Arabic ones for the main text are separate numbering systems. Here, however, they're treated as one and the same. I would love to know the thinking that went into this — assuming that thinking was involved, of course.
